    Penn State coach Patrick Chambers considered Joe Paterno one of his biggest fans.

    Just hours after the Nittany Lions former football coach died Sunday, Chambers pleaded with his team to play basketball Paterno-style. They did, but couldn't get a win.

    The Nittany Lions relied on gritty, tenacious defense to thwart Indiana (No. 13 ESPN/USA Today, No. 11 AP) early, but the Hoosiers rallied in the second half and eventually pulled away for a 73-54 victory.
